Peel’s 10th Homicide of 2015

A 23-year-old man has been charged with second-degree murder after police say his mother’s body was found in a Brampton home over the weekend.

Police were called to a unit at 33 Kennedy Rd. S., last Saturday

“On arrival, police located the 44-year-old victim, with signs of trauma, deceased within the home,” Peel Regional Police said in a statement after investigation.

Police have identified the woman as Galina Alexander. Her son, Hassan Salifu, was arrested at the home.

He appeared at a Brampton courthouse for a bail hearing on Sunday.

Police continue to investigate the homicide and would like to speak to anyone who knew either Alexander or her son, or who may have seen or heard anything prior to or after Saturday’s incident.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 905-453-2121, ext. 3205, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
